Looks like there is a patch to Zaptel to make it work:

but who knows if it's in & working...

I hear that it does with Zaptel - but Asterisk 1.6 - DAHDI ;-)

So use 1.2 and Zaptel then... Works for me. I have no reason not desire to even think about 1.6 right now... There are 1000's other still sticking to 1.2... I have ventured into 1.4 territory though, but oddly enough, it doesn't yet give me as secure a feeling as 1.2 does...

Given the PSTN rings once a month if that - all the rest is SIP via
ITSP, I can't justify the cost of 5 times a telephone for a card - but
thanks for the heads up GK old chap.

It's not a big issue - but an irritation if anything. I suspect a £2.50
callerID unit, a serial IC and a soldering iron may end up being the
solution :-)

Good luck then - but do make sure the line is actually presenting caller ID first! I had issues with some telewest lines until I ported them into VoIP...
